Live Cricket Score: Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI at Dhaka

In a low scoring thriller in the first One-Day International (ODI), Sri lanka scripted a dramatic 13-run win over hosts Bangladesh after being the second best team for large parts of the rain- affected game.

Bangladesh bowlers showed a lot of promise to reduce Sri Lanka to 68 for eight before Thisara Perera’s blitzkrieg of an innings rescued the Sri Lankans. Mushfiqur Rahim would hope that that his middle order batsmen show better composure and application while Sri Lanka would look to stamp their authority as a ODI unit as bigger challenges await them during the road to ICC World Cup 2015.

Bangladesh have not lost a bilateral series at home since 2011 and are expected to fight tooth and nail to extend that record.
